Nov. 27th, 2011 01:01 amSo I got really bored, and I went to Nifty.org, and re-visited some old favourites, and then I run across this.
What's this, a play on naming genitals and how different people use different words for the same thing? What's this, a strong strain of intergenerational love running through the text? What's this, a play on memory, moving back and forth chronologically? What's this, a POC character who's not exoticized throughout the text, WHOSE RACE ACTUALLY CAUSES SOME TENSION BETWEEN HERSELF AND A FRIEND? And a racialized, racist near sexual assault (that never gets detailed, but hey, it's a story about memory) AND IT'S ALL SO QUEER and everything just collapses into itself and gets captured by the mirror that's the motif all throughout the text and AUGH IT IS SO GOOD THE KIND OF DELICIOUS POSTMODERNIST NONSENSE THAT OUGHT TO BE PRETENTIOUS BUT I FORGIVE IT ANYWAY BECAUSE IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL.
I mean.
I dig it! I probably do not have the greatest taste in porn, though.
